Honkai Impact 3rd, Paradise Typewriter isn't for making this kind of game.

Xia Yuan scoffed, looking at the convenience store that he had decorated with the hard-earned money from his own labor, his expression revealing an extremely deep resentment... like an endless abyss.

"It's alright... Even a severely damaged Divine Key can still be used after some repairs. Destiny doesn't care whether a Divine Key is dead or alive."

Xia Yuan muttered something to himself.

"Hey... do you have no humanity? You even dare to target the Key of God? Bah! I'm not the Key of God. Fine... do whatever you want with me. Kill me or torture me, it's up to you. I don't have any money on me anyway."

"I owe money and I won't pay it back," Ms. Shizhilu said confidently.

Watching Xiao Shi throw a tantrum on the ground like a child, Xia Yuan felt a sense of disappointment for some reason.

He thought that Xiao Shi's personality meant he could still put up a fight and add some spice, cough cough... to be precise, some fun.

Looking around, the store's furnishings were rather ordinary.

Nearby shelves display strange sports drinks, Homura stationery, travel supplies, and household items packaged with Mei-san's self-portrait...

On the other side were snacks and cookies, as well as goods containing instant foods such as cup noodles endorsed by Kevin.

It seems that Xiao Shi has spent a portion of his hard-earned money on these goods. Considering the empty bucket of snack bags behind the counter, it's clear that Xiao Shi, as the shop owner, has been sitting here eating for quite some time.

Gollum-

His stomach rumbled; after driving for nearly two hours through the forest, Xia Yuan felt he needed to replenish his energy.

【Mei-chan Juice】

[The most popular drink sold in the city at the foot of Mount Taixu is loved by the general public. One bottle refreshes the mind, two bottles keep you from getting tired, and three bottles grant you immortality.]

[Tip: It's said that Mr. Houmu, who follows Bronya around, loves to drink Mei's "sister juice," but every time he drinks it, a pair of white ponytails magically appear behind him.]

Based on this clue, the "Mr. Hoomu" next to Bronya should be played by Kiana.

Kevin Cup Noodles

Mr. Kevin, known as a noodle-slurping master, won the noodle-slurping competition for three consecutive years and was selected as the spokesperson for cup noodles.

[Slurp~ Slurp~]

[Completely addictive]

Although there are many things I want to complain about, I'll put that aside for now... The most important thing right now is to fill my stomach.

Xia Yuan poured hot water into the instant noodles, waited quietly for three minutes, and then sat down in front of the Herrscher of Knowledge to eat. He really couldn't stop eating...

Seeing how much the other person was enjoying their food, the Herrscher of Knowledge couldn't help but feel a little craving in her stomach.

"Ahem... Um, sir... could I have a bite?"

Xia Yuan tapped the Herrscher of Knowledge, who was bound in a pretzel shape, and handed her the cup of noodles. Just as she was about to open her mouth, Xia Yuan suddenly took the cup of noodles back.

"You think it's possible that you've spent all the hard-earned money I've saved? Just sit there and starve. As a Divine Key, going hungry for seven days and seven nights shouldn't be a problem, right?"

Xia Yuan cruelly and ruthlessly rejected the request from the Herrscher of Knowledge.

"You...you've gone too far!"

The Lawyer of Knowledge really wanted to break free of her restraints and give the man slurping instant noodles in front of her a good beating, but these annoying ropes were tied too tightly. She had clearly stocked up on the cheapest items, so how did she manage to find genuine goods?

"Ahem... Sir, what you just ate was our limited edition instant noodles. The price has already offset the money I owe you."

Lady Shizhi, the Lawyer, had a sudden inspiration and said to Xia Yuan.

"First of all, this convenience store is mine, these goods are mine, and even you, Xiaoshi, are mine."

Xia Yuan pointed at himself with a straight face and said the villain's words. He then unscrewed the cap and took a sip of the "Mei-chan Juice." As expected of the number one selling beverage, it tasted surprisingly good.

"Pah, I'm not yours!"

Xia Yuan remained silent, quietly putting down the nearly empty instant noodle cup in his hand, and slowly approached the Herrscher of Knowledge.

"What... what do you want to do? By human standards, I'm still just a child. I just celebrated Children's Day a few days ago. You can't even spare children!"

As Xia Yuan drew closer, the Herrscher of Knowledge lost her confidence and nervously closed her eyes.

"Stop fooling around... I'm not interested in you at all, Xiao Shi. I just have a question for you. I'm actually lost in the forest. Do you know which direction the nearest town is in?"

"Huh? You tied me up just to ask this?"

Ms. Shizhi was both surprised and felt a slight sense of loss. Was she really that unattractive? Hmm... it's all the fault of this old-fashioned person.

"Look, the town is over there."

The Lady of Knowledge pointed in a direction with her still-functioning head.

Do you have a detailed map of the area around Mount Taixu?

Xia Yuan asked again.

Lady Herrscher of Knowledge: "Do you want a world map?"

Xia Yuan: "...Isn't a nearby map a must-have in convenience stores?"

"I've memorized the entire area; I don't need a map at all. If a tourist comes, I'll just give them a world map, right? I'll rip off whoever I can!"

The Lawyer of Knowledge looks like a heartless businesswoman.

"Xiao Shi, what kind of shady shop is this?"

Xia Yuan complained.

"Ahem... Sir, why don't you just make a bed in the convenience store and rest for the night? I'll take you to a nearby city tomorrow."

The Lawyer of Knowledge was plotting her own scheme, planning to sneak away after the other party fell asleep.

Chapter 261 Selling the Treasure for a Good Price~

But how could Xia Yuan not know what the other party was up to?

"I think we should do it now. After all, we have a living humanoid God Key map, so we might as well use it."

Xia Yuan planned to lead the humiliated Herrscher of Knowledge by rope to a nearby town. If they encountered Honkai Beasts or zombies along the way, they could ask them to help him take damage.

Hmm... If you need anything, please let me know.

"Hey, I've already told you I'm not a Divine Key!"

Xia Yuan ignored the other party and instead walked straight to the sack, putting it directly over the Herrscher of Knowledge.

Of course, Xia Yuan was quite considerate and left two small holes on both sides of the sack so that the other person could see the surrounding direction clearly, so that if they were discovered... they wouldn't be accused of child trafficking.

After all, others cannot see Shi Bao's appearance.

Xia Yuan unfolded the map he had carried with him, which described the area around Mount Taixu... and pointed to the location on the map, asking:

"Xiao Shi, be sensible. Where is this convenience store on this map, and where are we going next?"

The Herrscher of Knowledge, with a sack over her head, blinked repeatedly as she looked at the map Xia Yuan was pointing to.

"Hey, turn north at this intersection."

Xia Yuan stroked his chin and nodded, signaling the other party to continue.

"At the foot of Mount Taixu, there is a newly built sky bridge. Near the first intersection after the sky bridge, there is a statue of the Chi Yuan Ancestor, also known as the Ancient One. Turn right there... and then go straight ahead to reach your destination."

"Huh? This road?"

Xia Yuan suddenly interrupted Xiao Shi, his brows furrowing slightly... Could it be that Xiao Shi was trying to fool him again?

"What's wrong now, my dear customer? It's just that you owe some money. Why are you being so aggressive and making things difficult for a child who is not even five years old?"

"You think that's just a little bit of money? That's all the hard-earned money I've saved up! And that road you just mentioned, Xiao Shi, it's not even shown on the map, and there's no destination listed."

Xia Yuan questioned.

“Oh dear, sir, how could the great Herrscher of Knowledge lie? It’s just not drawn on the map. The nearest village to us is at the foot of Mount Taixu.”

"Hmm... are there any other options?"

Xia Yuan asked again.

"To get to Afu Town upstream of Mount Taixu, it will take us at least two hours of hiking, but to get to Chiyuan Village downstream, it only takes us thirty minutes."

"Red Iris Village...this place?"

Following the guidance of the Herrscher of Knowledge, Xia Yuan looked at the location of [Red Iris Village] on the map.

Although [Afu Town] is not very far away, the mountain road conditions must be very complicated, with many forks in the road. Most importantly, the mountain roads in this area are only paved with the most basic materials.

If we continue along the mountain path, and bring Xiao Shi along... the other side will definitely take the opportunity to escape.

After weighing the pros and cons, Xia Yuan decided to take Xiao Shi to Chiyuan Village first, find a resident's house there to stay and rest for a day, and then take Xiao Shi to Afu Town to sell for a good price after dawn.

"Then let's not delay any longer and set off for the nearest village, Red Kite Village."

At this moment, Xia Yuan's mind was filled with thoughts of how to sell Xiao Shi.

Holding the rope binding the Herrscher of Knowledge, Xia Yuan led her to the outside of the convenience store, and casually drank the [Mei Girl Juice] in one gulp.

Regaining his energy, Xia Yuan looked up at the night sky, where the moon behind the clouds shone with a brilliance comparable to that of the convenience store sign.

Securely fastening the Herrscher of Knowledge to the motorcycle, Xia Yuan, perhaps excited at having found her, slammed on the accelerator.

This motorcycle, which closely resembled Bronya's Heavy Bunny, emitted a muscular pink tail flame, leading Xia Yuan to suspect that it was a mischievous prank by Ai Li.

"Hold on tight~"

"Why are you holding me so tightly? My hands are tied up... you've fixed me to the motorcycle!"

But Xia Yuan seemed not to hear it, and amidst the hum of the engine, he drove the Heavy Rabbit away.

Guided by the slightly grumpy Herrscher of Knowledge, Xia Yuan crossed the narrow overpass and arrived at the first intersection.

The fork in the road is very narrow. If you are not a local and do not have a knowledgeable guide, it will be difficult to find the stone tablet and statue of the Red Kite Ancestor, let alone discover this road.

"Turn right, then proceed in a straight line."

Xiao Shi reminded him from behind, but Xia Yuan was wary and didn't completely believe what the other person said, since he was planning to take the other person to town to sell for money.

After driving straight for several minutes, Xia Yuan entered a primeval forest. The ground was covered with withered leaves, and giant cabbages growing by the roadside were about half a meter tall. Tree branches occasionally peeked out from above, making it seem like a deep mountain tunnel.

"Were these cabbages raised on Fertilizer?"

Xia Yuan had several questions in his mind. How did he end up on this path in such a muddle? Did Xiao Shi deliberately lead him into the ravine?

Just as Xia Yuan was furious and wanted to confront Xiao Shi, he found that there was nothing behind him, no trace of the other party, only a few cut ropes left behind.

"Xiao Shi!"

Xia Yuan has reached the brink of turning to the dark side.

Xia Yuan never expected that there wouldn't even be a road in this deep mountain tunnel.

About fifteen minutes later...

bang-

Suddenly everything went black. Before Xia Yuan could react, the front wheel of the Heavy Bunny was already heavily dented.

Xia Yuan instinctively pressed the brake, but by then the heavily armed rabbit had already plunged off the cliff.

The car leaned forward, and red warning lights kept appearing on the blue goggles. Under the headlights, the mud, the rows of cabbages planted by who knows who, and the unpaved mountain road were right in front of us.

——!

Xia Yuan forced himself to suppress his nervousness, pressed the brake, and stabilized the vehicle to avoid overturning as much as possible.

But......

Xia Yuan's Heavy Bunny motorcycle is not the invincible Heavy Bunny 19C behind Bronya. How could a fake compare to the real Heavy Bunny?

The impact of falling off the cliff, combined with inertia, sent Xia Yuan flying into the air as if he were on a trampoline...

In an instant, a flood of memories rushed towards Xia Yuan.

He never wanted to be a villain again...

Rushing straight down the cliff and overturning was not a pleasant experience; it was his first time ever experiencing driving a heavily armed rabbit.

Chapter 262 There's no place for you, you idiot subordinate, here anymore.

His body spun almost several times in the air...

Xia Yuan could still feel his head buzzing.

Fortunately, his face didn't hit the ground, and his limbs didn't show any signs of dislocation. It was a stroke of luck amidst misfortune. Once he could move again, he could still seek revenge on Bronya and retrieve the videotape.

The cabbages nearby have a very strong smell.
